Chereads / Prisoner in love / Chapter 14 - Scheme

Chapter 14 - Scheme

Tonight is the party , so now I am going to choose my dress . Eva is busy with her new position , so she can't come .

" Really wish Eva was here . At least someone will share their opinion with me . " I mumbled while sighing .

After 2 hours , I finally got a good dress .

" Never thought that getting a dress is this hard . " I thought annoyed by the fact that I only have another two hours to dress up before the party .

I went back home rushing to my room immediately to change before Hugo comes . After a while , Hugo came . He seemed shocked when he saw me .

" What's wrong ? " I asked wondering if I looked ok .

" You're so beautiful . " Hugo answered while caressing my cheek .

I blushed and went straight to the door . When we arrived .

" Don't worry I am with you . " Hugo reassured me while holding my hand .

I nodded and then we walked in .... As soon as we entered , all the attention was on us . All the people around us were whispering things like :

" Isn't this President Li from the Li group ? "

" Who is the woman next to him ? So beautiful ! "

" When did President Li get a girlfriend ? "

" That's not his girlfriend . At the Jins wedding party , they announced their marriage . "

After we entered , most people came to greet us .

" Hugo seems to be famous . I lost number of the hands I shook and the people I greeted ! " I thought while sighing .

Hugo noticed me , so he took my hand and excused us .

" Are you really that famous ? " I asked tired from all those people .

" Well ... that's normal . I know it's tiring , but try to endure . Remember what we are here for . " Hugo stated reminded me of the reason we came here .

The moment we finished talking , the targets appeared . They were laughing with a group of people .

" Laughing ? Let's see how you will laugh when I complete my revenge . " I thought having a sly smile .

We walked up to them having innocent smiles on .

" Mr. Jin ! What a coincidence ! " Hugo stated to make them notice us .

" Oh ! Mr. Li ! Nice seeing you here . " Kim stated trying to hide his anger with a fake smile .

" Nice seeing you again , Mr. Jin and Mrs. Jin . " I greeted them with cold eyes , but a warm smile .

" Mrs. Li , nice to see you too . " Carla answered with eyes full of anger .

" Mr. Li , can we talk ? Let's leave the ladies to talk with each other . " Kim suggested .

Hugo agreed . As soon as Hugo left , Carla's true face was revealed .

" Say . What are you doing here ? " Carla asked angrily .

" Carla , I don't think me coming here is any of your business . " I answered confidently .

" It doesn't ?!?! Then what does my affairs have anything to with you ? " Carla continued asking angrily .

" It doesn't have anything to do with me , but it was a secret I was supposed to keep , but why should I keep it now ? You never thought that I was so brave as to get a copy of those photos and give it to the media , right ? " I answered still not moved by her angry face .

At that moment , Carla pushed me while no one was paying attention . Falling down , I heard Hugo shouting , " WATCH OUT ! " to me .

What's wrong ? Watch out from what ? Why did Carla push me knowing that she is going to be blamed since I am the one on the ground ?
